Penguins swim at the San Francisco Zoo in San Francisco Thursday, Jan. 16, 2003. A few penguins swimming leisurely at the San Francisco Zoo is nothing new. But dozens of them doing laps in unison for hours has zookeepers perplexed. It all started this past November when six newcomer Magellannic penguins were brought in. Since then the penguin pool at the San Francisco Zoo has been a daily frenzy of circle swimming by all of the 52 birds at once. (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez)

LOL!

What I would've given to have been there, and know what I know now!

Examining a supposed chemical warhead without the benefit of some type of protective equipment seems a little fool hearty to me. I understand that some agents disperse rapidly, but many are persistant and will remain for an extended period of time.

[Lion Den Dan]

Last night on
TV I saw the idiot unscrew and peer into the warhead then wipe his face with the same bare fingers. I think this was a plant by UN.

[WaterDragon]

Christopher Hitchens has written some excellent articles today saying that U.N. weapons inspectors to Iraq have been bribed in the past, and my own take is that Blix is probably, most likely, paid off as well to protect Saddam.

And why on earth would anyone think we'd allow corrupt U.N. bureaucrats decide whether we should go to war to secure this nation? Absurd!

God bless each one of our military. They all are in my prayers every day, with gratitude.

[Frank_Discussion]

Hopefully soon, they'll be like maps of the Moon.

[Lady Jag]

Isn't it time to play Iraqi bingo?
Let's start: B-52...F-16...A-10...

Reference #35, I figured that 12 warheads, especially empty ones were a plant by the UN to show that SADDAM was inocent. I was wrong. I heard a few minutyes ago that they also found sever THOUSAND viable missles with which to carry said warheads. I also heard that this stuff was found as a result of a CIA tip.
